The King's Unbreakable Wife
“I cannot come to you with my problems when you have the weight of the kingdom on your shoulders. I would rather suffer in silence so I do not bother the king-” “Your husband,” Tobias corrected Hazel, placing his hands on her shoulders to comfort her as her eyes filled with tears. It pained him that he had not noticed how much the palace had been slowly breaking her. “I am your husband first. Do not hide your sadness from me,” he said, wiping away a single tear that slipped away with his thumb. … Hazel Wallace never thought she would make it far when she was picked to enter the selection for the next queen. In a surprise turn of events, she finds herself tangled up with the future king, Tobias Castro. Hazel once thought she would be strong enough to survive living in the palace walls. As queen and with Tobias by her side, she had nothing to fear. That was until the crown was placed on her head. Soon she realised the dangers in the palace and how not even the queen was safe from scheming men and women. Each day she spent in the palace, Hazel felt like a piece of her was slowly breaking away. Eventually, Hazel wanted nothing more than to run out of the palace, but after betrayals from people she thought she could trust, Hazel sought to become the person she was before entering the palace and get revenge on those who sought to take away her crown.

"I'm sure she will be fine. No need to panic. The duchess seems to know how to care for herself and should she need any help, she can call upon us," Hazel said to calm Heather. "It was nice of her to let you sit with us."
Heather agreed with Hazel. What woman in town would be so friendly to another who once was pushed to marry their husband by his mother? "I don't know why," she answered.
"Because she has a good heart. I am privy to a little bit about her childhood because of an ongoing court case so I understand why she is so willing to help others. When it comes to marriage, that is something I cannot do. Well, I have not been tested by it," said Hazel.
There was never once a woman Tobias might have previously been with or a woman who courted him in the past came to Hazel to let it be known. Her troubles came from the women trying to court him now and she already knew their intentions so she wasn't surprised.
